“…Due to light weight, excellent energy absorption, and low manufacturing costs, thin-walled tubes are widely used in vehicle engineering. Over the past few decades, a number of thin-walled tubes with different structures have been widely investigated, including corrugated tubes [ 3 ], folded tubes [ 4 ], grooved tubes [ 5 ], concave tubes [ 6 ], honeycomb structures [ 7 ], and lattice structures [ 8 ]. As one of the new types of thin-walled tubes [ 9 ], origami-based tubes have attracted considerable attention because they can be designed to guide the collapse following the pre-manufactured pattern and improve the energy absorption performance.…”
